If you want to immerse yourself in the craziness of SNOOP's employees and cannot fathom exiting the story until most of the resort's guests have been wiped out, then try this book. The reason for the foolishness is also preposterous since it would be more beneficial for the murderer if the other parties remained alive. Again, you already know who the culprit is and though doubt may set in, based on the wrenches that Ruth Ware attempts to throw, do not waiver. What you need to know is that while at this posh resort, a private gathering place for the founders and other decision-makers of SNOOP, some of the parties do not survive. When the novel commences, readers get a plethora of exposition and may even gather a sense of the possible guilty party even before the story gets into the heart of the matter. Most Ruth Ware books are easy reads, and One by One falls into the same 'easy read' category. It is fast-paced, astute and utterly compelling.' Jane Casey, author of The Cutting Place 'One By One has all the elements of a classic crime novel, brilliantly reinvented for the modern era with a dramatic setting, pin-sharp characterisation and up-to-the-minute plotting. This is Ruth Ware's best yet' Jo Jakeman, author of Safe House 'A fab psychological thriller and I loved the snowy setting! Incredibly tense and kept me guessing to the end' Emily Koch, author of If I Die Before I Wake 'So fast paced, action packed, twisty-turny, modern, clever, scary and ingenious!' Lisa Jewell, author of The People Upstairs 'Impossible to put down and perfectly claustrophobic and gorgeously atmospheric' Gytha Lodge, author of She Lies in Wait 'The queen of just-one-more-chapter has done it again' Clare Mackintosh
Agatha Christie would have been up all night reading this one!' Shari Lapena, author of The Couple Next Door When an avalanche cuts the chalet off from help, and one board member goes missing in the snow, the group is forced to ask - would someone resort to murder, to get what they want?
The clock is ticking on the offer, and with the group irrevocably split, tensions are running high. At stake is a billion-dollar dot com buyout that could make them all millionaires, or leave some of them out in the cold. Snow is falling in the exclusive alpine ski resort of Saint Antoine, as the shareholders and directors of Snoop, the hottest new music app, gather for a make or break corporate retreat to decide the future of the company. 'The sense of dread deepens as the snow falls in Ruth Ware's tensely plotted and deliciously cast alpine thriller' Louise Candlish, bestselling author of Our House **READ AN EXCLUSIVE FREE PREVIEW OF THE NEW THRILLER FROM THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE TURN OF THE KEY AND IN A DARK DARK WOOD**
